After the upload the remote attackers are able to access the file with one extension and exchange it with the another one to execute for example php codes. The security risk of the vulnerability is estimated as high with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 7.5. Exploitation of the arbitrary file upload vulnerability requires no user interaction and an unprivileged application user account. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in unauthorized file access via arbitrary file upload exploitation. Vulnerable Application(s): [+] Wordpress Levo-Slideshow v2.3 Vulnerable Module(s): [+] /wordpress/wp-admin/ Vulnerable File(s): [+] admin.php Affected Module(s): [+] /uploads/levoslideshow/[ALBUM_NUMBER]_uploadfolder/big/ Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The arbitrary file upload web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without user interaction and with an uprivileged application user account. For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to continue. Manual steps to reproduce the vulnerability ... 1. Login as an unprivileged user, which has no privilege of even uploading a plugin 2. Go to http://site.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=levoslideshow_manage 3. If any Gallery exists than don't create and go to "Category Management" 4. Click on "Add New", Upload any .png / ,jpg image from your PC and intercept the request 5.
